Abstract
We describe a simplified method for improving the reproducibility of transceiver coil fabrication for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) through single-use templates made from 3D-printed polymer forms. The utility of dissolvable inserts for achieving performance enhanced resonators (DIAPERs) is tested herein by a comparison of RF homogeneity along the rotor axis for variable-pitch solenoids with different inter-turn spacing. Simulated B1 field profiles are compared to experimental homogeneity measurements, demonstrating the potential of this approach for making NMR coils quickly and reproducibly.Entities:
